They are skipped by default, but I wouldn't say they are reserved. My DVD writer is set to A:, which is appropriate because it's basically obsolete too. I am not brave enough to set my OS drive to A: because you know some badly written piece of software would just gently caress me up.

revmoo posted:Exactly how thin does a phone need to be exactly? I just measured my phone with a set of calipers and it's 9.6mm (0.38") thick. It has wireless charging and a 3500mAH battery. If anything, I'd prefer a thicker phone because it can be hard to hold up something so thin during phone calls. My phone can be used as a loving self defense weapon! thathonkey posted:seconding anker. their charging stuff is great and lasts longer/works just as good as the apple ones I got my first anker about a two months ago and it's great! For half the price of some poo poo at target I get a usb that doesn't break within a month of moderately heavy usage!

The powerline cables are more expensive than options such as Amazon certified cables but you can often find them online for much less than the ~$20 price.

etalian posted:People always brag about the Genius of apple but they can't design robust adapter cables. Apple is okay at integration, but their actual engineering is crap. Their R&D budget is somewhere around 5%, which shows how little they value actual innovation. Most of the good tech they own is stuff that was developed but DARPA, acquired from SRI, or elsewhere. Apple makes their money from good marketing, not good engineering.

canpakes posted:1. Apple didn't make a "proprietary headphone jack." Did it ever occur to anyone that maybe the 1/8" jack lasted so long because it was a simple design that did its job as well as anyone could ever expect? Or that maybe some people would rather deal with a headphone cord than have another battery to worry about? quote:4. You can still listen to headphones while charging you dipshits, Just not with your fail tangled corded gaming headphones You can't listen to headphones while charging your headphones (at least, not with the wireless buds Apple has been showing off).

when i think of why its weird to get rid of headphone jacks i think more about my old rear end parents. they regularly get new phones because boomers are spoiled but they're too old to give a poo poo about things like bluetooth much less pay serious monies for headphones that use it. perhaps a phone without a jack could prove a convenient wall for them to just stop upgrading until they physically need to. tl;dr too much new poo poo could provide old people with a reason to relax spending
